Nancy, there is no way of getting around it. God is the One doing the electing. It is a prideful spirit of the one created to argue with the Creator about how we believe He should be. Isaiah 45:6-7 - That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside...

Nancy, if you're going to state this verse then you are implying that every single soul will be saved in the end since it's God's will. Which, ironically, would go against their "free will" also since they "choose" to reject Christ....

It appears all my post are not even being read, which is not surprising. It is not about "free" will or being "robots"

we are all equally spiritually dead in sin so what made you choose while the next person does not? Are you smarter than them? When you stand before God can you say, "Im here all on my own choosing and doing" ? Try telling an unsaved person to "get with the program" and believe. You'll soon...

Ephesians 1:4 - For HE CHOSE us in Him, before the foundation of the world.... God is the One doing the electing.

Psalm 5:5 - The boastful cannot stand in Your presence; You hate all evil doers. Proverbs 16:4 - The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil. Romans 9:22,23 - And what if God, desiring to display His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much...

You're welcomed to believe that all that. Like I said, God is not forcing, He is activating. Don't forget, You believe in a form of limited atonement because not everyone will be saved, your view is limited as well. It is that or universal atonement. Mankind is fully evil, fallen, and in sin...

@Jane_Doe22 did the Holy Spirit force you to repent? Yes or no? And if no, then why did you not pass up the opportunity to repent?

it’s already been stated mans will is not free. It’s enslaved to sin and if enslaved, then it’s not free.

@Jane_Doe22 When a person is confronted with the reality of their sin and the evilness of it they don’t want to stay in that state. Why did you repent? Was the conviction of the Holy Spirit forcing you to repent?

No, they willing accept / come to God because once aware of their sin and the truth of the Word they repent. God is not forcing it upon them, God is activating and irresistible = too appealing to pass up. And you never answered my question, would you pass up the life raft?

Would you turn down a life raft if you were on a ship that’s sinking in the middle of the ocean? No you wouldn’t. Humans as a whole are clearly blind to the glory of God. Everything in creation tells of God’s presence and glory. I believe once the heart has been cut to the core in conviction the...

He is no longer the husband if a divorce occurred.

Irresistible grace does not mean "forced". It means that is it too attractive to pass up. If you were in debt and bankrupt and someone handed you 50 million dollars would you say, "how dare you give me this money!" Absolutely not. When someone is convicted by the Holy Spirit and sees their sins...

If She is divorced then he is no longer the husband...she can re-marry

If physical sexual sin is involved the person is free to divorce. Some choose to stay and work on the marriage and that is amazing, but they are not obligated to.

I believe what the scriptures say, the only biblical divorce is one from when physical adultery occurs. Remarriage outside of that is wrong. I will say this, I do not believe that separation is a sin or wrong, if ones life is in danger then you have a right to separate to protect yourself and...

That's the thing, "my emotions tell me it can't be, so it must not be true." I understand at first it is a hard reality to swallow but God makes no effort to hide it and He does not need man to save Him from a "bad reputation". "What should we say then? Is there injustice with God? Absolutely...

According to you it does not matter what you believe because God will save everyone in the end.
